An ox is male. A cow is female. It may be fashionable to ignore gender
differences, but it is imprecise.

 
Oxen are a type of bovine, bull and cow are the sexes.

 
Oxen are usually castrated males.

Some may be castrated males but, according to my dictionary they are
used for draught, for milk or for meat.  Unless you are going to tell me
you have succesfully milked a bull,  "Stupid Cow" makes sense.
